Another Boeing 777 airliner model papercraft template, this time I made British Airways triple seven (B777-23/ER). This Waterside based airline has 43 of B777-200ER airplanes. There is something new in its logo, a crown logo added beside British Airways logo. The template is exactly the same as previous B777-200 model, only different is on the livery. The assembly instructions is the same as well. For you who is not familiar with model with inner glue tabs perhaps find this model hard, but if you try it according to the instructions I'm sure you will find this method is easier than ordinary pepakura style glue tabs.

Continuing the series of Boeing triple seven models, this time I made a Boeing 777-200 template from Malaysian government-owned airline, Malaysia Airlines. This model is also a tribute to the victims of the plane that is still the mysterious its whereabouts. Not as I suppose, after often read the news about the MH370 flight, none of the Mh370 number printed on the airframe. Not much news agency were stating the aircraft registration number, 9M-MRO, but often informed simply by the flight number, MH370. B777-200 was the initial version before the 300 series that I have the previously release.

200 series fuselage is more than 10 meters shorter and without the swept wing tip as the 300 series. 200 series is 63.7 meters and series 300 is 73.9 cm. I cut the 300 fuselage, before the wing and after the wing. This model also with different engines, it used Rolls Royce engine. While in the previous release 300 series use General Electric engine.

Recently, the most bizarre incident happened in the aviation world . Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777-200 plane disappeared on a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing . It's been almost a month has not been any signs of debris from the flight of MH370 . The Boeing 777 is a great aircraft , some of the visitors of Paper replika request for a model replica . Ok, I think I will make but with different color first , as a base . Somewhat different from the MH370 flight using a Boeing 777-200 , PK - GIA from Garuda Boeing is using 777 - 300ER. Newer type and longer .

As in the previous airliners models models , this model using the technique with inner glue tabs , but with a little adjustment for easier on assembling . The improvements are removal of the inner glue tabs on the bottom of each part , replaced by moving the flap directly on parts. Inner glue tab is only used to connect between the parts to other parts . Wing attachment has also been strengthened by the use of reinforcing ribs so hopefully the main wing will no longer bent downward. The template consist of 8 pages of patterns.
